  • Learning staple goods for a user
    Patent number: 11282126
    Abstract: An online concierge system accesses an order history database, which describes historical orders for a plurality of users. Each historical order comprises a list of items selected by a user from a plurality of items. The online concierge system determines user streaks, each user streak based on a number of consecutive orders placed by a user that include a particular item. The online concierge system calculates an overall streak distribution based on the user streaks. For each item of at least a subset of the plurality of items, the online concierge system calculates a streak statistic based on a corresponding subset of user streaks and the overall streak distribution. The online concierge system selects a set of staples items for a user based on the streak statistics for the set of staple items and generates a display for the user with a selectable list of the set of staple items.

  • Gas-flammability sensing systems and methods
    Patent number: 11247784
    Abstract: Gas-flammability sensing systems and methods may be used to determine the flammability of gas mixtures in measurement volumes such as a fuel tank (e.g., an aircraft fuel tank). Gas-flammability sensing systems include a test cell structured to receive a gas sample, a heater in thermal communication with the test cell, and a gas meter configured to measure a physical property of the gas sample within the test cell related to the combustion state of the gas sample. The heater is configured to heat the gas sample to an elevated temperature less than the autoignition temperature of the gas sample. Methods of determining the flammability of a gas sample include collecting the gas sample, heating the gas sample to the elevated temperature, measuring the physical property of the gas sample after heating, and determining the flammability of a gas sample based upon the measured physical property.

  • DETERMINING GENERIC ITEMS FOR ORDERS ON AN ONLINE CONCIERGE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20220044299
    Abstract: An online system provides options for selection by a user. The online system receives a query entered on a client device. The online system queries an item database to retrieve a set of items related to the query and assigns each item to a product category in a predefined taxonomy that maps items to product categories. The online system inputs each item into a prediction model trained to predict a probability that an item is available at a warehouse location. The online system determines that a first product category has low availability based on predicted probabilities for items in the first product category. Responsive to determining that a first product category has low availability, the online system generates a generic item for the first product category and sends a list of items including the generic item to the client device for display responsive to the query.

  • DATA-PROVIDER AGNOSTIC CLOUD SECURITY TOOL
    Publication number: 20210314368
    Abstract: A device determines that a policy is to be executed. The device retrieves rules, resource identifiers, and data provider identifiers associated with the policy. The device asynchronously retrieves resources from data providers that are called for by the rules, and executes each of the rules as their corresponding resources are retrieved. The device identifies a group of rules that have failed. The device calculates a risk score for each rule of the group and generates an alert for each rule of the group. The device outputs a report including each alert, each of the alerts being prioritized in the report based on the risk score of their corresponding rule.

  • RESOURCE DE-DUPLICATOR FOR DATA-PROVIDER AGNOSTIC CLOUD SECURITY TOOL
    Publication number: 20210314363
    Abstract: A device determines that a policy is to be executed. The device retrieves rules, resource identifiers, and data provider identifiers associated with the policy, generates a pending rules data structure and populates the pending rules data structure with identifiers of the retrieved rules and their respective necessary resources as indicated by the resource identifiers. The device generates a pending resources data structure with the resource identifiers and their respective data providers, collects, asynchronously, each resource, and, as each respective resource is collected, deletes the respective resource from the pending resources data structure and populates a collected resources data structure with an identifier of the respective resource.

  • SYSTEM FOR VENDOR CORRECTION OF ERRORS
    Publication number: 20210295349
    Abstract: Examples provide a system and method for handling non-damage related errors in received freight. A front-end error handling application applies a set of user-configurable rules to obtain information associated with a detected error in a received item. The error handling application creates a ticket, including a predetermined number of images of the received item, for uploading to a vendor correction of errors (VCOE) backend for resolving the error tickets. The VCOE component determines when to deny or close error tickets and sends notifications requesting appropriate remedies to resolve error tickets to one or more providers associated with the non-compliant received item. The provider can include a vendor, carrier, or distribution center. Aggregated data from a plurality of error tickets is provided via a dashboard for user review.
